NIGHT ARRESTS,
Evil-Doers Whom the Police Spotted
Despite Darkness.

p. p. Edwards, n white man, was ar
rested last night by Officers Duvall and
Mahan, and the charge OF pocket-picking
was placed opposite his name on the sta
tion-house register. Edwards is supposed
to have gone through q drunken man on
Front street, near Washington. The vic
tim was also locked mp, but he was too
drunk to give his name.
A young white man, giving his name rs
Thomas Mullen, was arrested last night
by Capt Hackett and locked up, on the
charge Of vagrancy. Mullen was found in
company with an old white man who had
money and was q perfect stranger to him.
1t is suspicioned that Mullen was trying 10
lead the old gentleman to some convenient
place where he could "work" him.
Last night Sergt. Iloran arrested Frank
Williams, Il sixteen year old negro boy, on
suspicion that NE Is the party who snatched
the sachel from Mrs. Dorion ms she was
alighting from street car Tuesday even
ing. The sachel, which contained Sb jut
SD was found at the house OF the boys
mother, but the money was gone.
The boys step-ialhcr claims that
he found the sachel on the
river BUN about sixty yards from the
house, and that there was no money in it.
Williams has been working for the street
car company. lie tallies with the dc.
scription OF the thief as given by the driver
Of the car on which the robbery was com.
mitted. The boy, it is said. was run
away from Little Rock for stealing pistol.
Just before midnight Officer Mccormick
heard pistol shot in the neighborhood o
Second street, where il crosses the Louis.
vile & Nashville railroad. Running down,
he discovered three negroes, who, upon
seeing him, broke and ran. The oglocl
caught two OF the men, but after 6
desperate struggle they looscncd them.
selves from his grasp and ran. One
hid under u car but was pulled out
by the officer. Tho negro resisted
and whipped out an ugly looking knife
with which he cut Mccormick across the
left hand, inilicting two painful wounds
Mccormick put the nippers on the Negro
and brought him 10 the station, where he
gave his name MS John Wayne. The negro
who fired the shot is named Thad Potter
and is well known TO the police.

% per cent The reduction, slight In some cases,
in Others not attempted, IL In many cases from 40
30 90 per cent
II added, also, and we commend this TO
Mr. Moorc's particular attention:
In the mechanical aud manufacturing indus
tries especially those which have been long es-
tabllshcd Il would seem that the improvements In
machinery and processes made within tho last
twenty years, and the high scale Of productiyeness
which has become Characteristic OF their estab-
ilshmcnts would permit our manufacturers TO
compete with their foreign rivals under substan-
tial reduction Of existing duties.
And the Commission continued:
A substantial reduction OF tariff duties Is de
manded, not by n mere indiscrmlnatc popular
olamor but by the best conservative opinion Of the
country, including that which has In former times
been most strenuous for the preservation Of our ma
iional Industrial deienses. Such reduction OF the
existing tariff the commission regards not only MS
due recognition OF public sentiment and measure
OF just TO consumers, but one conducive 10 the
general Industrial prosperity, and which, though It
may be temporarily inoonvenlcnt will be ultimate
ly beneficial to the special interests affected by such
reduction No rates Of defensive duties, except for
the establishment Of new industries, which more
than cqnalize the conditions Of labor and capital
with those Of foreign competitors can he justified
Excessive duties. or those above such standard OF
equalization positively Injurious to the inter
est which they are supposed to benefit
1t may paralyze Mr.. Moore to have such
quantity Of cold water so suddenly show
cred upon him, and may extinguish TO
some extent the fires Of enthusiasm which
have been kindlcd in his soul, but THE
APPEAL, as paper irrovocably welded TO
the Democratic party, and conscious OF its
responsibilities, cannot permit Mr.. Moore
10 lug tho State OF Tennessee into the
Rcpublico. Protection camp. Mr.. Moore
will perceive, on comparing the excerpts
which we have submitted, with the utter
ances OF President Cleveland in his mes
sage, that he has, TO put it in homely
phrase, gone of hali.cockcd. The gentle
men whose words we have quoted are
very eminent Republicans, and it may
be that they now wish they had
left these words unsaid, but, until they
shall rrpudiatc them distinctly and make
public definition Of their attitude 10 Mr..
Cleveland, Mr.. Moore, as a Republican
in the ranks, had better sing rs small as
possible, We give him this advice in the
friendlicst spirit, for we do not desire to
contemplate tho melancholy spectacle Of
Mr.. Moore endeavoring to lead the Re
publican party in one direction, and Sem
aiors Sherman, Morrill, and IIawlcy striv-
ing TO lead il in another. Mr.. Moore may
repent his nervousness, no TO speak.

not at all like the report OF the Board Of
Control, which is charged with the special
duty of oversighting the Penitentiary and
tho States convicts, says, following the
line OF suggestion by TIE APPEAL, that
"some recommendation should have been
given that measures be taken to reform
the criminal TO teach trade, TO show that
law-obeying pays financially better than
law-breaking, and not allow him, when
the prison doors are opened upon him, to
go out a thousand times worse than he
was when he went in, with every feeling
of indignation at his cruel treatment, and
every teaching and circumstance TO hound
him on along the dark track of crime"
